This year, we are grateful for God’s protection, God’s provision, God’s guidance, and God’s gifts over Rain Tree Clinic. We are also deeply thankful for every donor who faithfully supports Earth Mission.

Happy Thanksgiving!

We're officially kicking off our Giving Tuesday initiative! Click the link to reach the donation page: https://earthmission-bloom.kindful.com/?campaign=1391698

From now until Dec. 2, we're raising funds for our PA and E-Tech class of 2027 students. These donations are what put the students through our program and ensure they have the skills to build, run, and staff hospitals and clinics here in rural Myanmar.

Earlier this month, our Thai foundation packed dry food to send to Mae Sariang, where the excessive rain and flooding this year has caused so much damage.

One night earlier this the month, we were coming home from a meeting with regional leaders when our truck began skidding out of control. Pretty dicey. We stopped several miles out from RTC and called for chains for the tires. By the time the chains arrived by motorcycle, the rain had really started coming down.

We abandoned the trucks and started walking. Honestly, we didn’t know if we’d be out all night. We shared what food and clothes we had with those who didn’t have enough. Made use of every scrap of plastic. Still, everyone was laughing and making jokes. We weren’t going to die; it was just the possibility of a very uncomfortable all-nighter.

We radioed for an ambulance as we started walking. Then, after only a few miles of walking/slipping, the ambulance was able to get to us and pick us up. We made it back wet, but safe and sound.

I absolutely can’t imagine doing this if I were sick or in labor or running from Myanmar's army. Raykaw, one of our local team members, talks about a time in his childhood when his whole village hid in the rain in a narrow valley in the jungle, thinking they were all going to die.

I started to imagine those people who've spent three or four days trying to get to RTC with one of their loved ones, and what a relief it would be to finally see the lights of RTC. I felt a little of that seeing BeGlue and GlerMoo, the two young men who bravely drove the truck to pick us up. I could see their faces in the cab. I imagined those who have really faced trials seeing the concerned, competent, empowered faces of our well-supplied people.

That’s what we are offering at RTC: hope. And that is no small thing in the dark, cold rain.

Lord help me get one more. One more.

We have officially met our $25,000 goal to cover the cost of shipping $500,000-worth of medical supplies from the USA to our hospitals in Myanmar. These critical supplies will enable our doctors and PAs to save lives. We couldn't have done it without all YOU who donated.

These are traditional hand-woven Karen garments, and they're still an important part of normal Karen life here at RTC, most notably at church each Sunday. They're a testament to tradition, patience, and work lovingly done.

Our Surgical PAs take turns covering our Mobile Karen Surgical Hospital (MKSH) near the front lines.

This team can triage, resuscitate, and stabilize patients, then transfer them to somewhere with a higher level of care as needed. Often they place chest tubes, do blood transfusions, and practice wound care. They perform amputations, if needed.

Having this caliber of health care near the scene of injury has saved many lives and limbs, especially during the rainy season, when getting the patient to our main hospital could take days.

The MKSH team does more than provide medical services; they offer hope that someone cares and stands ready to help the wounded.

Our PAs demonstrate courage daily under the pressure of treating war wounds, learning surgical skills, and delivering new lives into the world while keeping mothers safe and well.

For Naw Klee Moo Paw, one of our Year 2 PA students, her goal of becoming a medical professional is starting to feel like reality. As she practices the things she learns — inserting an IV cannula or urinary catheter, giving a nebulizer treatment, providing oxygen, or assisting with dressing changes — it "makes everything feel real and exciting," she says. “I feel like I am stepping into the real medical world that I’ve always wanted to be part of. Even though much of my role is still observation, I am eager to learn and ready to practice new skills whenever I have the chance.”

Help us transport $500K in medical supplies to support our staff out here in Myanmar. The last hurtle is $25K for shipping; more info here: https://earthmission-bloom.kindful.com/?campaign=1389031

We’ve just been approved to receive a large medical supplies donation — valued at $500,000 — from SOS Louisville, a charity that rescues unused supplies destined for landfills and gets them into the hands of medical missions across the world.

The timing of this feels like one of those God things. Just recently, we started dreaming up new ways to support our PA graduates in the field. One idea is a distribution center to get medical supplies and medicine to clinics in remote areas of Karen State.

SOS Louisville’s generous donation of more than 317,000 pieces of supplies will help get it started! All we have to do is cover shipping. From start to finish, it will cost roughly $25,000 and take a few months to ship the supplies from Kentucky to the Rain Tree Clinic.

We need your help to get it here, and the time to ship is now. With rainy season ending soon, the race is on to get essential supplies delivered into Karen State before the rains begin again in April.

By raising $25,000 now, we can safely get this massive quantity of supplies in the hands of our PAs before the window of opportunity closes.

God loves to do impossible things, and He especially loves to do it through His people. Would you help by giving or sharing with your community?

Thank you for being part of the mission.

October was a big month for us; rainy season finally began to slow, and we celebrated 10 years of being an established foundation in Thailand. The Burmese Festival of Light took place, PA students practiced their ultrasound techniques, and we managed to squeeze in some friendly volleyball games, too.

With rainy season finally over, we expect to start seeing a higher volume of patients again. The work continues!

Health for the Hidden

The Karen are a people group concentrated along the Thai-Myanmar border. As peace in Myanmar struggles forward, many Karens still scratch out a living as farmers. In mountain and jungle areas, little is left over for education or healthcare.

Since 2015, Earth Mission Asia has been operating a five-year Physician Assistant training program that is specifically designed around problems commonly found in rural villages. We are also developing training programs needed to support healthcare teams in in the jungle (i.e. engineering technology and administration). Our strategies are especially focused on empowering students from these areas.
